Ethos is demonstrated when the character is described in a literary nonfiction. In Autobiography, the ethos describes what and how the author, was like. In a personal essay, the author describes the characters in the essay to express his or her feelings. In a memoir the ethos is when a person or thing that was part of the event are shown and described.

We learn that Romeo often makes mistakes and we also learn that in the future, Romeo will die.
This is important because it foreshadows the ending in the story where Romeo and Juliet die.
